I think it's hard to pull off, but if you can, then go for it!(: But I wouldn't recommend wearing it everyday. Maybe try a bright pink, or a red, or a dark purpley-red color and see how you like it?(:

For editorials and photographs it's perfect, especially paired with flowers and a white setting. But for everyday use I go for a dark brown like MAC's Film Noir lipstick - still dramatic, but not as goth.

I personally think it's awesome, but I can't pull it off, especially because I'm a student in school still hahaha! I guess it's a good look for Halloween for me, since that's the only time I could pull it off.

I say YAY but with most highly daring colors I go by guideline. A. like someone said, plan ur attire accordingly you don't wanna come off as random, B. I apply dark colors depending on the season. I think Black is perfect for fall. And C. if it looks amazing on u, go ahead. I don't see why not

I agree with the Cyber suggestion. It's less harsh but has the edgy effect. The tone makes a huge difference; some black lipsticks are just flat & harsh. It's the "look" you want, not just to say--yeah I wear black lipstick!

I think that should be a supper yay. I totally agree that people who will judge you just don't have the balls to do the same. I work with kids and I wear gray, purple, ultra red and yes, even black lipstick. Go for it. If you could find something close to matte, in my opinion, you would create something even more beautiful and that would not scare haters, muahaha.

My rule for clothes and make up is: if it was too immature/ goth-y/ whatever-adjective-you-have... you wouldn't want to wear it! My "however" though, as all the before posted comments: exercise a balance to make it look chic :) post a photo online for us after!

personally think its a good look for special occasions, has to kinda match otherwise it can look scary and disgusting (not an everyday look)

and just to boost ur confidence I ordered the Armour Beauty Lip Gloss in Femme Fatale (black) I am gonna work my way gradually to a black. And I love the pic you posted. I very clean look. Minimal makeup with the intense black lip is very couture and high end. I intend to wear it with slick back ponytail and menswear inspired clothing. I think the OVERALL look is what is gonna make it either amazing or tacky!

The confidence u hold will let you wear whatever lipstick you want. If u arent ready for full on black, try a really dark purple or really dark burgundy first, or mix it with black!
